It seems that in last two weeks the number of players on OCTGN has increased. So I want to ask everybody who tried OCTGN and gave up because they couldn't find a game, or just were discouraged by early experience with it to give it a try one more time, this is a best time to do it. Also if you see me online and you are a new player don't hesitate and pm me, I will help you learn how to use interface etc .

I've downloaded it a few days ago and I'm still trying to figure out how it works. If I see you online and if I have the time(my main problem with this stuff, I don't have time to seat before the computer for more than an hour) I'll Pm you, or viceversa.

I would advice practicing a bit in offline mode, start a game try to play few lowballs, upkeeps, sundown, then try to play some cards and execute few scripts, finally learn how to draw and redraw, you don't have to remember all of it, it is enough to understand how to do it and practice it few times. Also recently I played against a player who tried DTR on OCTGN some time ago and hated it then he tried it again recently and he says he loves it now. Also don't put too much pressure on yourself in the first few games, focus on learning interface etc. wins will come with time.

I'll play online again as soon as i got internet back at home (moved beginning of August).Had a lot of fun playing DTR on OCTGN with swider, fu_ninja and co in July.Can also play with people trying online for the first time and explain how stuff works, if i have some time

You can start the game without logging in, what's more you can do it twice (start OCTGN) and play against yourself, create a game in one client and join it from the other one, switching between windows is required though, but it is a good way to practice things if you feel uncomfortable to play against experienced players.

What's more, when you launch OCTGN under Windows and it asks you if you're running it under Wine, you should say yes - otherwise you might have a weird error crash when starting the program. Yes, this is very strange, and this error might be rare, but if you do encounter it, now you know how to fix it.
